Though Paul Wahlberg makes this signature drink with high-quality chocolate these days, he joked that it was the cheap powdered stuff when he was a kid. “But Mom always made hot cocoa with Fluff,” he said.

It’s not winter without Fluff,” he said. This also can be a sweet treat for kids — without the alcohol, of course.
